Default 1996 ITR DISTRIBUTOR, help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a 1996 ITR Motor and now I need to change my DISTRIBUTOR.

By the way, I have MSD SCI w/ Blaster Coil, anf MSD Cap.

Is the GSR and ITR distributor the same ?

Is the USDM and the JDM distributor the same?

OEM from Acura is like $500.00, I was considering to buy one from the "DISTRIBUTOR KING" doe anyone have experience with their products????

Any help is greatly appreciated.....

Many Thanks...................

The way I understand it, you have a PR3 head. So a 99-00 Civic Si dizzy, would probably be your best bet.

But will my MSD cap fit the Civic SI?
(MSD cap is for a GSR)

OBD 1

When I drive, around 4000-5000 RPM my tach jump up and down quickly.

I check all grounding and it's fine. I went to a performance shop and they told same thing it's the distr. going bad. Any suggestions?

Is this normal reaction when the dizzy is going out?

I just order distr. housing from Acura Carland for like $260.00

By the way I have MSD and SS Blaster Coil so I do not need oem ignitor and coil.

How long do Dizzy last?

Actually, now I'm experiencing some hestitating and it's not going into VTEC.

Only when the car is hot during drive.

It's actually getting worse, any more advice?
